These crunchy cheese chicken tenders take only 20 minutes (!!!) to make. All you need to do is make and season a Cheez-It crumble. Once fried, the ridges of the crackers make the a really satisfying crust. You can also make crusted chicken using any crackers or cereal you can think of–Corn Flakes, puffed rice and even bacon if you’re clinically insane (read: perfect and don’t ever change).

Instructions

Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.

Gently pat dry the chicken in paper towels.

In a food processor or in a plastic bag using a rolling pin, grind the Cheez-Its or cheese crackers until they resemble a coarse crumb. Combine with salt, pepper, Italian Seasoning and garlic powder. Spread across a plate.
